Seattle Seahawks C Justin Britt has a $5 million option bonus due in the middle of March, which will decide if his contract will run through 2019 or 2020. Britt would be under contract through the 2020 season if the team decides to exercise the option. Britt would be a free agent after the 2019 season if the team declines the option and the $5 million would be added to his 2018 base salary.

Seattle Seahawks SS Kam Chancellor (neck) intends to play next season if he is medically cleared to do so. Chancellor suffered a serious neck injury last year but does not plan on retiring. As reported previously, his $6.8 million 2018 salary became fully guaranteed last week.

Seattle Seahawks CB Richard Sherman (Achilles', foot) said he is ahead of schedule in his recovery from Achilles' tendon surgery and believes he should be ready to go for minicamp. He is scheduled to undergo surgery to remove bone spurs in his foot.

Seattle Seahawks CB Richard Sherman, entering the final year of his deal, said that he will act as his own agent when dealing with his contract situation. "I'm sure we'll have some communication," Sherman added. "I'm representing myself. The whole agent thing is really overrated at this point."

Seattle Seahawks WR Doug Baldwin will have $4.5 million of his $8.25 million base salary for 2018 guaranteed if he is on the roster Friday, Feb. 9.

Fantasy Tip: Baldwin barely missed the 1,000-yard mark this season but finished with 991 yards and eight touchdowns. He will continue to be the top target for the Seahawks and should be a No. 2 fantasy receiver.

Seattle Seahawks SS Kam Chancellor (neck) is unlikely to formally retire this offseason due to a clause in his contract that guarantees him $12 million in the event that he is injured. Likewise, the Seahawks are unlikely to release Chancellor because his cap charge would go from $9.2 million to $19.5 million. So it appears very possible that Chancellor will be on the Seahawks roster in 2018 whether he can play again or not.
